Need extra cash? Earn $15 for Participating in a CASL Research Study

The University of Maryland Center for Advanced Study of Language (CASL) invites students at the University of Maryland, College Park to participate in a 2011-2012 study examining people’s descriptions of how they behave with different types of people. The study will consist of taking questionnaires related to this topic, and/or completing several simple cognitive tasks, such as unscrambling words or making judgments about displays of geometric shapes.

Research participants must be 18 to 35 years of age, must be native speakers of English, and must have been born and raised in the United States.

Compensation: $15 for approximately 1.5 hours, or $8 if you did not press “submit” but completed a significant portion of the survey.
Location: The survey may be completed from any computer, including the comfort of your dorm room.

For more information and to register, please email CPsurvey@casl.umd.edu with “CP” in the subject line.
